Apples Never Fall
follows the story of former tennis coaches Stan and Joy as their lives are turned upside down when a wounded young woman arrives at their door.
Annette Bening disappears from her idyllic life in the new trailer for Peacock’s upcoming Apples Never Fall. The new miniseries will premiere on the streamer March 14, 2024. Sam Neill, Jake Lacy, and Alison Brie will also star in the adaptation of Liane Moriarty‘s bestselling 2021 mystery novel. It is the latest of Australian author Moriarty’s works to be adapted for TV, following Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers.
The trailer opens with things going pretty well for Joy and Stan Delaney (Bening and Neill); they’re retiring from operating their successful Palm Beach tennis academy to spend more lushly-photographed time with their friends and family, especially their four children (Lacy, Brie, Conor Merrigan-Turner, and Essie Randles). But as the soundtrack turns more somber, Joy disappears, leaving only a bunch of symbolically-fallen apples and a blood-spattered bicycle. Literal and figurative storm clouds start rolling in, as suspicions mount in the Delaney family – even as patriarch Stan insists that Joy will be back. Soon, Stan is being accused of murder, while the Delaney brood digs into their parents’ past and finds that all is not as it seems – and that everything may stem from an incident when Stan and Joy took in a mysterious wounded stranger. The answers to this mystery, and more, will all begin unfolding this spring on Peacock.
Apples Never Fall
Former tennis coaches Stan and Joy have sold their successful tennis academy and are ready to start what should be the golden years of their lives. While they look forward to spending time with their four adult children, everything changes when a wounded young woman knocks on Joy and Stan’s door, bringing the excitement they’ve been missing.
